Teething occurs at so many different ages! When my kids turned 6 - I was wondering why are they teething?! Oh - 6 year molars! Who knew....
.
Here are 2 options for you Mama's:
💧Babies - diffuse equal drops of lavender & roman chamomile. OR massage 1 drop of each in 2 tablespoons of carrier oil.
.
💧Children - add 4 drops lavender, 3 drops roman chamomile & fill the rest of a 10mL roller bottle with FCO. Apply as needed!
.
Oh how I wish I had these oils when I had babies!
.
💧Roman Chamomile - sweet floral aroma that can soothe body systems & support calming effects on the mind, skin & body. Ancient Romans used this oil for courage during war. And the plant has been nicknamed the "plant's physician" because it has positive effects on plants growing nearby.

We recently moved and I'm slowly making my way through boxes we had in storage. I finally found the box with all of Liam's old clothes I saved for a future baby. Now, that future baby exists so I washed everything. As I'm folding the clothes, my memories of my sweet Liam feel tarnished by the firm grip #postpartum#depression held on me.
That bright yellow shirt with the face, for example: Liam loved that shirt and he tried to mimic the silly face with me but the outstanding memory is of how sad I felt when I bought it and how heavy I felt while he wore it. He nearly destroyed the knees of those teal striped footie pajamas you see at the top. He was at the top of his crawling game when we wore those. I remember sitting in his room on the floor with him feeling completely numb, tearful, and dissociative. I had several good days and I still have pleasant memories of that time but many, sadly, are not so joyful due to toxic fog of #PPD#PostpartumDepression is real and it's a shitty way to experience your first baby. Check in with your new (and veteran ) #mom friends, see if they're doing okay. Be persistent. New (and old ) #mamas , take care of yourselves, because can't pour from an empty cup. 💜

"You will never have this day with your children again. Tomorrow they’ll be a little older than they were today. This day is a gift. Just breathe, notice, study their faces and little feet. Pay attention. Relish the charms of the present. Enjoy today, it will be over before you know it."
